This book explains the group representation theory for quantum theory in the language of quantum theory. As is well known, group representation theory is very strong tool for quantum theory, in particular, angular momentum, hydrogen-type Hamiltonian, spin-orbit interaction, quark model, quantum optics, and quantum information processing including quantum error correction.
To describe a big picture of application of representation theory to quantum theory, the book needs to contain the following six topics, permutation group, SU(2) and SU(d), Heisenberg representation, squeezing operation, Discrete Heisenberg representation, and the relation with Fourier transform from a unified viewpoint by including projective representation. Unfortunately, although ... Read moreProduct Details

Reviews for Group Representation for Quantum Theory
“The book is well organized. Crucial notions such as highest weight representations or coherent states are introduced, first in special cases and then generalized step by step. … There is also a quite useful index of notation in the form of 8 tablets, each table grouping symbols of a given type. The presentation of representation theory of compact groups and ... Read more
